Mental immunity [sound recording] : infectious ideas, mind-parasites, and the search for a better way to think / by Norman, Andy,author.(CARDINAL)851785; Pinker, Steven,1954-writer of foreword.(CARDINAL)332272; Constant, Charles,narrator.;
Read by Charles Constant.Covid denial. Anti-vaxx. Flat Earth theory. Astonishingly irrational ideas are spreading. Why is this happening, and what can we do about it? Andy Norman shows that these phenomena employ clever strategies to circumvent mental and cultural immune systems. Norman shows this as more than mere analogy: minds and cultures really do have immune systems, and they really can break down. Fortunately, they can also be built up. He calls for a rigorous science of mental immune health to revolutionize our capacity for critical thinking.

Super immunity : the essential nutrition guide for boosting our body's defenses to live longer, stronger, and disease free / by Fuhrman, Joel.(CARDINAL)390202;
Includes bibliographical references.What is super immunity? -- Food equals health -- The failure of modern medicine -- Super foods for super immunity -- Cold and flu : what we need to know -- Healthy carbs, fats, and proteins -- Making the right choices -- Menus and recipes."Every year in September the spectre of cold and flu season arrives. It has become a fact of life. We might as well allot for our sick days knowing that we will be hit at least once, if not two to three times before Spring's arrival. In every office and in every family, there are those who get sick regularly and those who manage to stay healthy through it all. In Super Immunity, Dr. Fuhrman will explain why some of us get sick more regularly than others and offer a proven program to stay healthy through the year. Dr. Fuhrman argues that our current approach to disease is doing far more harm than good. He asserts that flu shots, antibiotics, supplements and alternative treatments are not the answer and can actually make us more sick. He explains why our current efforts are failing us. The truth is far too many have depleted or compromised immune systems. This is no surprise given antibiotics are prescribed with every cough and sniffle and it is too easy to get simply stuck in a vicious cycle of a cold or flu that passes from one family or office member to the next before you have a chance to get healthy again. The answer, he suggests, is as simple as what we eat. Super Immunity offers a detailed, proven and easy-to-follow program for escaping the sick bug and returning us to health and well-being. There is no need to dread the first Fall day, cringe at the first back to school sniffle, or call your doctor and schedule that flu shot. Super Immunity is a medical break-through that will work for you. Isn't it time you became the one who stays healthy during flu season?"-- Provided by publisher.

Mental immunity : infectious ideas, mind-parasites, and the search for a better way to think / by Norman, Andy,author.(CARDINAL)851785; Pinker, Steven,1954-writer of foreword.(CARDINAL)332272;

Propagating enlightenment : how to bend the arc of history.COVID denial persists in the face of overwhelming evidence. Anti-vaxxers compromise public health. American Nazis march openly in the streets. Flat Earth theory is back. Norman shows that these phenomena share a root cause: We live in a time when the so-called "right to your opinion" is thought to trump our responsibilities. Minds and cultures really do have immune systems, and they really can break down. Fortunately, they can also be built up. Norman calls for a rigorous science of mental immune health, and explains how it could revolutionize our capacity for critical thinking. -- adapted from jacket
